Animoca Brands, Hong Kong-based gaming software firm, has announced on Wednesday that it has invested $100,000 into NFT finance firm Cyan for buy now, pay later (BNPL) service. Cyan’s Buy Now, Pay Later service will enable users to buy NFTs and pay for them later in the future.

It provides users the ability to finance NFT purchases, re-collateralize, and a way to earn yields on metaverse assets by staking them into vaults.

Cyan Raises $100k From Animoca Brands

Cyan has announced in a tweet about raising 100k in a pre-seed investment from Animoca Brands. The partnership will increase NFT participation and inclusion by helping users capitalize on the service. The tweet says:
